might help keep your
calorie intake low, but
introducing chemicals
into your body is not a
good idea. Sugar craves
sugar, and ingesting
artificial sweeteners
reinforces the cycle,”
says Sabherwal. Diet
fizzy drinks and
sugar-free chewing
gum contain caffeine
and aspartame. “The
latter leaches calcium
off your bones and
teeth. A better strategy
is to start your day with
a complex carb, in
wholegrain bread (the
crumblier the bread,
the better it is for you)
for example. It will
provide a sustained
eight-hour sugar
release in the
bloodstream and ease
your cravings,” she
adds. Pro tip: eat a fruit
for a snack. The simple
sugars in the fruit will
tide you over for the
next two hours.
